About AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION

  • AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION contains the active ingredient Interferon beta-1a. This substance belongs to a group of medicines called immunomodulators. Think of interferons as natural messengers your body makes to help fight infections and diseases. The protein in AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION is exactly like the one your body naturally produces.
  • This medicine is used to treat a type of multiple sclerosis (MS) known as relapsing MS. MS is a condition where your body's immune system mistakenly attacks your brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system). Relapsing MS means you have periods of new or worsening symptoms (relapses) followed by periods of recovery.
  • AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION is generally not recommended for use in children and teenagers, especially those under 10 years old. This is because we don't have enough information about how well it works or how safe it is for them.
  • Before starting treatment, it's very important to tell your doctor about your complete medical history. You should inform them if you have ever had an allergic reaction to interferon beta-1a or any other ingredients in the injection. Also, mention if you have or have had severe depression, thoughts of harming yourself (suicidal thoughts), epilepsy that is not well controlled by medication, serious kidney or liver problems, or issues with low white blood cell or platelet counts. Heart problems or severe reactions at the injection site should also be reported.
  • While using AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION, keep a close eye on your mood. Report any changes, including new or worsening depression or suicidal thoughts, to your doctor immediately. It's also crucial to tell your doctor if any existing health problems get worse while on this treatment. Open and honest communication with your healthcare provider about your medical history and all medications you are taking (including over-the-counter medicines and supplements) is key to ensuring AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION is safe and appropriate for you.

Pregnancy

CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR

There is not much information on the safety of AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION for pregnant women. If you're pregnant, suspect you might be, or are considering becoming pregnant, it is important to inform your doctor and seek their advice before starting this medication.

Dosage of AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTIONArrow

  • If your doctor or nurse has trained you, you can learn to give yourself AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION at home. It is very important that you have your first injection done under the supervision of an appropriately qualified healthcare professional to ensure you are comfortable and doing it correctly. If you have trouble handling the syringe, don't worry, just ask your doctor for help. Your physician will decide the exact dosage and frequency of AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION based on your condition. To avoid the risk of skin and muscle irritation or soreness, always choose a different injection site each time. Good sites might include your thigh, upper arm, or buttocks, rotating between them. Please do not use it on a part of the skin that looks bruised, red, infected, feels sore, or has a wound. Before using, take the AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about half an hour (30 minutes). Always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before you begin. Clean the injection site with an alcohol wipe and let it dry completely. Keep necessary supplies like alcohol wipes and sticking plasters (band-aids) handy in case you need them. After injecting, safely dispose of the used syringe as shown by your doctor or nurse. Your doctor will tell you how long you must keep using AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION. Using it correctly is essential for managing your condition effectively. Follow all instructions carefully.

How to store AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION?Arrow

  • Keep AVONEX 30MCG INJ 0.5ML away from the reach of children and pets.
  • Store AVONEX 30MCG INJ 0.5ML in a refrigerator (2 - 8°C). Do not freeze.

Benefits of AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTIONArrow

  • AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION works by regulating the immune system to protect nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord.
  • This helps to reduce the frequency and severity of MS relapses and slow down the progression of disability over time.

How to use AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTIONArrow

  • Using AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION yourself is possible after your doctor or a qualified healthcare professional has provided you with thorough training. It is crucial that your very first injection is given under the careful supervision of a healthcare expert to ensure you are comfortable and confident with the process. If you find handling the syringe or performing the injection difficult at any point, please do not hesitate to speak to your doctor. They can provide additional guidance or explore other options to assist you. Your doctor will determine the correct dose and how often you need to use this injection based on your specific medical condition and its severity. Always follow their instructions precisely regarding dosage and frequency.
  • Before preparing for your injection, make sure you have everything you need ready: the AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION, alcohol wipes, a sticking plaster, and a sharps disposal container. Take the injection out of the refrigerator (if stored there) about 30 minutes beforehand to allow it to reach room temperature, as injecting cold medicine can be more uncomfortable. Thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water and dry them completely. Check the injection for any particles or discoloration if visible.
  • Choose a different injection site each time you use AVONEX 30MCG/0.5ML INJECTION. Common sites include the thigh, abdomen (avoiding the navel area), or the back of the upper arm. Rotating sites helps prevent skin irritation, redness, scarring, or fatty tissue changes at the injection site. Clean the chosen area with an alcohol wipe and let it air dry completely. Inject the medicine exactly as you were shown during your training. Never inject into areas that are bruised, red, sore, infected, wounded, or have scars or stretch marks.
  • After administering the injection, carefully withdraw the needle and apply gentle pressure to the site with a clean cotton swab or gauze. If needed, cover the site with a sticking plaster. Dispose of the used syringe and needle immediately in a designated sharps disposal container to prevent accidental needle sticks. Keep a record of the injection site used to help with rotation. If you experience any unusual redness, pain, swelling, or other reactions at the injection site, or if you have any concerns about your injection technique or how you feel after the dose, contact your doctor right away. They are your best resource for managing your treatment.
